1 St. Jerome Catholic Church Faith Formation Discipleship Award Program Level: First Grade Part C Due: Sunday, May 14, 2017 Adapted from the work of K. Kearney, St. Lawrence Catholic School, Tampa, FL

2 Dear Parents, The purpose of the Discipleship Award Program is to help the young people of St. Jerome learn, explore and experience our Catholic faith in a way that leads them to a greater understanding of and a deep, lifelong commitment to our faith. It is important for our children to learn that we are not passive spectators in our relationship with God. Each and every day, we must engage ourselves in activities that draw us closer to God and to our final goal of eternity with Him in Heaven. It is the goal of this program to give our children opportunities to do just this, engage in activities that draw them closer to God, and to recognize them for their efforts. The Discipleship Award Program is an optional program for those students and families who wish to use it. There is an award booklet for each grade level, Kindergarten through Eighth Grade. Each grade level booklet will contain age appropriate activities. It will be important however, especially with younger children, for parents to be actively involved in assisting children with completing the program requirements. In fact, some of the activities included are family activities. The Church teaches that Parents are the principal and first educators of their children (CCC 1653), and children will receive the most benefit from this program when families are actively involved in the learning process. Documents will also be available on the St. Jerome website. How the program works: Each year, students will have the opportunity to achieve the discipleship award three times (see due dates to turn in paperwork on the following pages). If a student earns all three awards in a given year, he/she will receive special recognition in the form of an additional award, called the Trinity Award. As the discipleship program continues to grow and develop, other recognition will be given when students earn the Trinity Award multiple times. The activities within the program are separated into four categories based on the Four Pillars of the Catholic Church: What We Believe, How We Worship, How We Live, and How We Pray. Some activities within each category will be required, and some of the activities will be listed as options within each category. The due dates and directions for each of the award periods are given on the following pages. Homeschool students: When instructions are given to share something with a class, the homeschool student may share the project at a homeschooling or similar type gathering. We look forward to partnering with you in encouraging our students to grow in knowledge and faith. Please feel free to contact the Faith Formation office if you have any questions for PreK through Grade Five at x330 or x336 for Grade Six through Eight. In Christ, Fr. Tom Morgan, Pastor Sr. Lucia Brady, Pastoral Assistant Joseph Plesko, Director Faith Formation, Youth Ministry, Catechesis of the Good Shepherd Lisa Brett-Reeves, Coordinator Catechesis of the Good Shepherd
